    This is exactly my type of game, cool animation, something new with the brush control and a nice adventure run around. I haven't played this in years and never will again but couldn't believe the reviews. I was really excited to play it, I played it for about 5 hours the first night and woke up the next day and put it on eBay. It is by far one of the worst games I have ever played.

So boring, I like boring adventure games but this was a joke. Annoying character with you the whole time. By annoying I mean unbearable, wanted to rip it from the screen and smash it in. Then the brush that doesn't work very well at all I can't understand the high scores. I gave it a 1 for looking nice but there was nothing else to like for me to rate it higher. Sitting through 5 hours of Hatsune Miku, mixed up with a bit of Hello Kitty and a bit of Hannah Montana thrown in for good measure would have been 5 hours better spent than this. Possibly my least favourite game ever made. Expand

    Okami may be the most visually stunning game I've ever played. On the surface it might seem like your basic cel-shaded title, but it doesn't take long to realize that there's so much more to the aesthetic than meets the eye.
  2. While its slower adventure game style pacing and low difficulty may throw off a certain crowd, Okami’s charming world with its nice fairy tale story, great gameplay, and incredible graphics will give most an experience likely to be remembered for decades. Okami is truly a remarkable experience. [JPN Import]
